So, Week 6 was not a great week for anyone. Only one person cracked the 10 point barrier, and that was... Heather? Wow, didn't see that one coming.
This pool is quickly turning into a two man race, with the rest of us merely playing out the string. Here are the standings:
1. Scott (61)- Scott had a 9 point week, and took over sole possession of 1st place.
2. Dave (60)- Dave had an 8 point week, and fell off Scott's pace. He's still the only one close enough to challenge Scott.
3. Jen (56)- Jen had a 7 point week, which really hurt her chances. I think being on the West Coast this week negatively affected her picks.
3. "Gram" (56)- No comment.
3. Ryan (56)- Ryan's quietly hanging around near the top, and finally passed Steph.
6. Steph (55)- Steph had a rough 7 point week as well, and slips further down the table.
7. John (53)- John took a lot of chances that paid off (Tampa Bay, Kansas City). He also took a lot of chances that didn't (Houston, Dallas).
8. Matt (51)- Eh. A 7 point week, the Jets lose, and the Red Sox suck at the moment. At least I scored in my rugby game (which we lost).
9. Holly (50)- I want a side bet between Holly and Bill. Let's make this happen.
10. Bill (49)- Seriously- whoever ends up with the better record can dictate something embarrassing for the loser to have to do.
11. Nancy/Janie (48)- Nancy was one of two who picked Carolina to beat Arizona. Nice. Plus, Vinny Testaverde is old enough to be my dad.
12. Heather (44)- Imagine where she'd be if Heather made her picks every week.
So what have we learned this week? We learned that the Cardinals cannot be trusted. We learned that you're never too old to quarterback. We learned that the Saints are impossible to figure out. We learned that the Madden curse does exist (with Vince Young going down with a bad quad- wuss). And we also learned that Jets are faster than Eagles, which means they deserved to be picked to win last week.

I tried to get your wife to bring you some baja fresh but she didn't want to.
Nothing to do with the pool but thought you should know I was trying to help you out Savior.
Thanks- you know, I give her 10 years, and she can't give me Baja Fresh. How ungrateful...
I was traveling for 9 hours. No one wants that smell. Keep quiet and enjoy your Dwight bobblehead.
I think there's plenty of time left to rebound, slow and steady wins the race.
I do love my bobblehead
On this sweetest day I think we should honor Grammie as the Matriarch of the family for all the Godly,wonderful,lifestyle attributes she possesses. She has legitimately submitted all of her picks and has loved being involved with our hallowed league .She should be congratulated for her great tie-breaker guess on the last Monday night game.I hope no one is jealous of her beginner's luck in predicting games,or are you basing the incorrect babblings of Jane's phone call to Grammiie as to how she makes her picks to convince you that she is not honoring the sanctity of ourleague rules of making picks. You all know how Jane can get her stories mixed up.Ihope to see you all at Thanksgiving work=permitting.I start first shift on our newly acqiured Hummer line on Oct.29 and I dont know how it will run over Thanksgiving.
Glad to hear you got some first shift work, Bro! Great news, and I hope it lasts.
Don't worry - All stories by Jane are taken with a grain of salt :-)
